NYFB’s Policy Development Process

Grassroots At Work — Making Member Voices Heard

Farm Bureau’s public policy development process makes this grassroots organization truly unique. Member farmers can turn their ideas into official Farm Bureau public policy allowing the organization to advocate for particular positions or legislation. Check out the policy development chart below to see how the process works. Learn how an idea to improve agriculture can become an official policy that guides Farm Bureau leaders and staff as they advocate for the position.
